Weirdest thing you've ever seen on the ground during a run..? (Read 10676 times)

    Saw not one, not two, but three cowboy boots on the side of the road today. Found the first one next to a bridge and then found the other one about a mile and a half later. A few yards later I came across boot number three. Weird. They didn't look like cheap boots either.

    Passion is a rather frightening thing because if you have passion you don't know where it will take you.

     

    When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

      Not on the ground, but got whacked in the head by a bat last night.Right around sunset. Didn't hurt, just kinda glanced off the side of my noggin.Probably scared him as much as it scared me!

        Hahahaha!  I thought at first that you meant a baseball bat!  Not that getting hit by a baseball bat is funny...laughing at myself for thinking that.  Nevermind...I'm digging the hole deeper aren't I?

        Dead fish...whole, small, dead fish.  That's the weirdest so far for me.

           Wow, I wasn't aware that bats really existed ...  good thing none live around here!

            They are creepy, but harmless. They also eat thousands of mosquitoes a day, so they are our friends.

             

            New one - last night on the boardwalk, running and a crab scooted across with it's claws up in the air. I laughed at myself because it startled me!

              Not weird but I scored a pair of only slightly rusted vice grips that I found in the road last week that now inhabit the tool box on my service rig. :-)

              The whole world said I shoulda used red but it looked good to Charlene in John Deere Green!!

                        I'm still trying to conjure the scenario where one would have reason to toss a vibrator to the side of the road.

                               Maybe she bought a Chevy Volt and didn't need it any more. Or a Pontiac Vibe? Or a Ford Probe?
